| Summary: | The effect of corrosion on concrete is rarely taken into consideration although it is known that the concrete can experience chemical reaction due to certain condition of exposure. Marine structures are likely exposed to corrosion as the sea water contains a lot of chemical contents that may lead to severe chemical corrosion if precaution is not taken into accounts. The study provides an overview of the current state of art of corrosion control as well as to steel. The study also discusses the application of Migrating Corrosion Inhibitor (MCI) for protection of reinforced concrete structures against corrosion. Measurements of corrosion potentials were carried out in the laboratory on reinforced concrete samples subjected to chloride attack to represent the marine environment. Based on the study, samples containing MCI show to have better performance and protection against chloride attack compare to the control samples although no corrosion activity is observed. |
